US District Judge William Alsup, who oversaw the Oracle v. Google lawsuit, is concerned that paid bloggers or other types of writers may have influenced the court—and he wants Google to try a little harder to come up with a list of any writers it may have paid.
Google produced a general list of "types" of people and organizations that get money from the search giant and would have been in a position to comment on the case if they chose to. That list includes universities, specific grant recipients, Google employees, and even bloggers who participate in Google's advertising program. However, "neither Google nor its counsel has paid any individuals or organizations within those categories to report or comment on any issues in this case," the search giant wrote in a court document filed Friday.
That isn't good enough for Alsup, who wrote that as it stands, Google hasn't complied with his order. Oracle did comply, in Alsup's view, by disclosing that it had paid one blogger: Florian Mueller, a self-styled patent expert frequently quoted in the press. Mueller disclosed the relationship himself in April, albeit at the end of a long blog post. Oracle says it never paid Mueller to write blog posts about the case.
And it's not a small thing, in the judge's view. "Just as a treatise on the law may influence the courts, public commentary that purports to be independent may have an influence on the courts and/or their staff if only in subtle ways," opines Alsup in today's order [PDF]. "If a treatise author or blogger is paid by a litigant, should not that relationship be known?"
In its response, Oracle lawyers not only disclosed paid blogger Mueller, they also happily took a shot at Google's claims of transparency. They argue that it's Google, not Oracle, who pays a shadowy "network of influencers" including trade organization CCIA.
Alsup doesn't seem to have bought into any conspiracy theories yet, but he would like Google to give the list-making a better shot. Consultants and employees who commented on the trial count; universities, big organizations, and bloggers who just use Google advertising software clearly don't, he said. "Oracle managed to do it," he noted.

Jeri Ryan and Ivan Sergei Develop Killer Chemistry on Body of Proof
Where's Olivia Pope when you need her? Body of Proof's ambitious chief medical examiner and congressional candidate Kate Murphy (Jeri Ryan) hasn't even been elected yet and she's already facing her first potential scandal on this week's episode (Tuesday, 10/9c, ABC). While making an appearance at a ritzy Russian political gala, Kate strikes up a conversation with a tall, dark, secretive Ukrainian attaché named Sergei Damanov (Ivan Sergei). "Sergei and Kate have this very steamy, very passionate thing," Ryan says. "And then it gets complicated."
That's a major understatement. After a tryst in Sergei's hotel room, Kate discovers he may have shot and killed a woman during the night - which, if true, is not going to go over well at the ballot box. Luckily Kate has office frenemy and brilliant medical examiner Megan (Dana Delany) to help her uncover what really happened. "She wants to keep it as private as she can, but she's in over her head," Ryan explains. "All signs" - including one of Sergei's shirts soaked in the victim's blood - "point to him being the killer."
Just don't expect Megan, who's been known to give Kate a tongue-lashing or three, to have much sympathy for her beleaguered boss as they surreptitiously work together to solve the crime. "They don't always see eye to eye," admits Ryan. "So Megan helps but also just berates her."
As for shooting the romantic scenes with hottie Sergei, Ryan isn't complaining. "He was so much fun," she says. "Although it was funny because he stayed in character - and spoke in a Ukrainian accent - the whole time. Until they called 'wrap,' I'd never even met Ivan!"

Bananas Foster and bread pudding: together at last
Bananas Foster and bread pudding are two of the most popular desserts in New Orleans. So in honor of the over-the-top nature of Mardi Gras, we decided to take a more-is-better approach and combine them into one.
We topped a simple baked banana-pecan bread pudding with a classic hard sauce — including a healthy dose of bourbon, of course — which becomes a gooey icing that melts into the dessert and hardens as it cools. If that's not your style, the dessert would be equally delicious topped with a scoop of butter pecan ice cream. Or both.
Banana Bourbon Bread Pudding
>Start to finish 1 hour; serves 16
For the bread pudding:
1 loaf (about 14 ounces) banana bread, cubed
4 cups (8 ounces) cubed French or Italian bread
2 very ripe bananas, mashed
3 eggs
1 cup sugar
3 cups milk, hot
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1/2 cup pecans, toasted and chopped
For the bourbon hard sauce:
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened
2 cups powdered sugar, sifted
1/4 cup bourbon
Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Coat a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with cooking spray.
On a rimmed baking sheet, arrange the cubed banana and French or Italian breads in an even layer. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, or until lightly toasted. Set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together the mashed bananas, eggs and sugar. While whisking, pour in the hot milk, then add the vanilla and allspice. Gently mix in the toasted bread cubes and pecans, then spoon the mixture into the prepared pan. Bake until puffed and cooked through, about 25 to 35 minutes.
Meanwhile, prepare the sauce. In a medium bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the butter until smooth and soft. Add the powdered sugar and beat until well incorporated. Add the bourbon and stir until smooth. Set aside.
When the bread pudding has finished baking, dollop the hard sauce over the surface, spreading it as necessary to allow it to melt evenly over the surface. Serve the bread pudding warm.

Hi there! Just wanted to gain some perspective. Out of anyone here who had the gastric bypass, can you give me info on your journey? How much weight did you lose in the first month, 3 months, 6 months after surgery? I'm working on getting my clearances so that I can have surgery in late summer. My friend, who just had GB, told me "your new life doesn't start the day of your surgery, but right now, so take care of yourself!" So, I'm trying. But hearing what others have experienced will give me some perspective and I'm big on that kind of thing.· 1 reply
I lost 25 pounds in 3 months before surgery and your friend is right. Putting off losing weight till surgery date just reminded me of all the excuses I made before. I'll wait till Monday to start or after the holidays.
I'm 8 weeks out from Gastric Bypass and lost another 25. So I'm averaging about 3 pounds a week post-surgery. That's the most I've ever lost consistently over time without regain so I'm happy. Good luck on your journey!
Lost 3 pounds this week. I'll take it!!!· 0 replies

Waiting for surgery date…still undecided sleeve vs. RNY· 2 replies
I had the sleeve 9/13/21 and just had a the sleeve to bypass revision on 5/3/23. My HW:321 (I'm 5' 8" tall)and I went down to 254 while doing my 7 nutrition appts required by my insurance company. So just changing the way I ate, I was able to get those pounds off w/o surgery. I have many Co morbidities mixed hyperlipidemia, diabetes, htn, MI due to covid. I had read and done quite a bit of research so I could choose the best surgery for myself and learned previous to my sleeve that someone as heavy as I was and all the Co morbidities I have, it was better in my situation to have the bypass but, my DR. Kept saying I would have the same results with the sleeve. Every time I would see him and say to him that I felt it would be best to just get the bypass, he just shot me down and said the sleeve would produce the same results! Why he kept asking me which surgery I wanted at each visit just to tell me the sleeve was all I needed still a mystery to me????? Let's just say, my Dr. Was wrong you see, the surgeries are both about the same price, but the sleeve is easier for the surgeon to perform so I think my DR. Just wanted the easier since he would get the same pay no matter what. After sleeve surgery I did go from 254 to 226 BUT that's just because you are healing from surgery and can't eat anyway as soon as I recovered! I was starving non-stop. I went right back up and stayed at 248. Still had to take cholesterol meds, blood pressure meds, diabetes meds etc. I'm now almost 4 weeks post op the bypass and feel great. I'm not starving all the time, went from 248 to 220 and doing great! Not only what you just read about my story, you also hear about a lot of people needing revision after the sleeve due to acid reflex like severe acid reflex all the time. So the bypass surgery is the only way to stop This reflux if you acquire this condition after sleeve surgery. The regain possibility is higher with sleeve than bypass so just think about all these factors before you make your decision. I wish I would have just had the bypass and saved myself from having to have 2 surgeries in under 2 years. The bypass surgery was also less painful for me lol! I don't know if the new surgeon was better or what but, I was home the next day. After the sleeve I had to stay an extra night due to the nausea and vomiting all night and for pain control.
After doing the research between the sleeve and bypass, I chose the Gastric bypass for quite a few different reasons. Thankfully my surgeon told me I was a perfect candidate for it after he examined my health history. Oddly enough, his nurse tried talking me into getting the sleeve too. Like your doc said, she thought it was easier and just as good. But I'm not looking for easy. I'm looking for more effective. Just the reflux alone was enough for me to say no thanks.
Sorry you had to get 2 surgeries and wishing you all the best!

No. 4 Wisconsin 13-0 going into Big Ten play
MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- Sam Dekker and Frank Kaminsky have given Wisconsin's frontcourt depth and the fourth-ranked Badgers have used a balanced attack to enter Big Ten play with a perfect record.
Wisconsin was picked in the preseason writers' poll to finish fourth in the Big Ten after losing its top three frontcourt players and rebounders from last season, but completed the nonconference portion of its schedule with a 13-0 record, the school's best start since the 1913-14 season.
The Badgers have four players averaging in double figures and all five starters have led the team in scoring at least once going into their first conference game Thursday at Northwestern (7-6).
"That makes us a tough team to scout," said Dekker, a 6-foot-7 forward who was named to the Big Ten All-Freshman team last season. "You kind of pick your poison sometimes, who you're going to leave open and who you're trying to key on defensively. I think that's what makes it tough. We have five guys on the court that are skilled enough to put the ball in the hoop and create shots for each other. I definitely think we're a tougher team to guard this year."
Dekker leads the team in scoring with 14.5 and rebounds with 6.2, but Kaminsky has been a surprise after averaging 4.2 points and 10.3 minutes per game. The 7-foot junior is shooting 56 percent from the field, averaging 14.2 points and 5.8 rebounds, including a 43-point outburst in a 103-85 victory over North Dakota.
The Badgers' three-guard backcourt has been bolstered by the return of two-year starter Josh Gasser, who missed last season with a torn ACL in his left knee. Gasser is averaging 9.0 points and 32.2 minutes per game.
Guard Ben Brust, the only senior in the rotation, is averaging 12.5 points and shooting 44 percent from 3-point range. Junior point guard Traevon Jackson, thrust into a prominent role last season after Gasser's injury, is averaging 10.7 points.
"That experience, especially for Traevon Jackson, was huge," said associate head coach Greg Gard. "It wasn't always pleasant to go through at the time when it was happening and he was learning on the fly. But, to be able to put that in the rearview mirror and learn from those experiences, now we can take those and apply them to being better and more experienced, especially in the backcourt."
The Badgers top two reserves are emerging freshman Nigel Hayes, a 6-7 forward, and Bronson Koenig. a 6-3 guard.
Wisconsin is sandwiched in the rankings by two other conference teams, third-ranked Ohio State and No. 5 Michigan State.
"I think there's plenty of teams that can win this league and any team can win on any given night," said Dekker, who has worked to improve defensively. "I think we have a team that's ready for that. I think we have a team that has prepared itself and has worked hard to get to the point where we're at. But also, we're a team that's still hungry and not content with where we're at. We have a lot of work left."
Last season, the Badgers tied for fourth in the Big Ten with Michigan at 12-6, but advanced to the conference tournament title game before losing to Ohio State. In the NCAA tournament, the fifth-seeded Badgers lost their opener to 12th-seeded Mississippi, 57-46, going just 15 of 59 from the field.
This season, the Badgers have shown they can grind out a victory when not shooting well, winning 48-38 at Virginia despite making just 15 of 52 shots.
After Northwestern, the Badgers host Iowa and Illinois at the Kohl Center, where they have lost just 18 games in 13 seasons under coach Bo Ryan. A scheduling quirk also favors Wisconsin, which plays Ohio State and Michigan State just once, with both games in Madison.
"With the mindset that we have, I think it should be no surprise if we're up there at the end of the year," Dekker said. "But, we've got a lot of good teams to play and a lot of teams trying to knock us off. We've got to be prepared and play with that high energy and play Wisconsin basketball. If we do that, I think we'll be all right."

When it comes to your finances, it may be intimidating to create a go-to strategy. Deciding the best path for your money, such as determining your risk profile and performance goals, can be complex if you are not a financial expert. Because of that, many people choose to get professional help. If you are one of those people, it is important to make sure you are consulting the right advisor for your needs. Wealth management is a popular option for people looking for professional financial assistance. If you are seeking the services of a wealth manager in , , this article will help you make the wisest decision to have your money best managed based on your needs, while also giving you alternatives to traditional wealth management.
First of all, many people don't understand very well the difference between wealth management and financial advisors. Wealth managers are just one category of financial advisors who work with a broader approach to your financial life. For example, while some financial advisors only give investment advice, wealth managers also offer legal and state planning, accounting, tax services, and retirement planning. Many wealth managers can provide services for any facet of the financial field, but some specialize in particular fields.
Usually, wealth managers in , work with either one set fee or on commission. Those who charge one set fee can do it annually, hourly, or a flat fee. Those that charge a commission, are paid through the investments they sell. Then, fee-based advisors work on a combination of both fees and commissions on investment products sold. On average, for $1 million of assets under management, the advisory fee is 1%. However, smaller account balances tend to be charged a higher percentage. Generally, the more you have under the care of your wealth manager, the lower the fee is going to be.
It is also important to consider the minimum asset requirement to open an account with a wealth manager. This value can go from $250,000 to over $10 million, depending on the firm and professional you choose to hire in , .
The type of financial advisor you need depends on your needs and personal situation. In general, the financial holistic approach offered by wealth managers highly benefits individuals with a high net worth. That is because the highly tailored services of wealth advisors comprise most, if not all, financial aspects that a HNWI (High Net Worth Individual) may need for its personal and professional life. Also, the minimum asset requirement to hire a wealth manager can be an impediment for some.
However, not only the super-rich can use these services. Some professionals have a more affordable minimum asset requirement that can be as low as $250,000. Still, if you have a more specific demand or goal, wealth managers may not be a worthy investment. This type of service is ideal if you want comprehensive financial advisory planning.
Just like almost every industry, wealth management evolved with technological advancements. Embracing new tools such as AI, this financial advisory sector grew strong in the online sphere. Often called robo-advisors, online wealth management services use computer models to automatically create solutions to your financial needs. Online wealth management services can also advise you on how to best allocate your money, rebalance portfolios as needed, reinvest dividends, and others.
Online wealth management services have lower fees compared to traditional wealth advisors. Fees for robo-advisors can go from 0.25% to 0.5%, which is half or less of the fees of traditional wealth managers. This is possible because online wealth management services use quantitative financial algorithms processes by computers that demand very minimal human intervention. Therefore, online wealth management firms have fewer professionals to pay. On top of that, robo-advisers have lower expenses from physical spaces of work.
Another difference between online wealth management services and traditional ones is the minimum asset requirement. More often than not, robo-advisors minimum asset requirement is absent or as low as $1,000. This makes wealth management services more accessible to individuals that don't have a high net worth.
If you read until here and you believe a wealth manager is the right option for you, the next thing to do is to choose the firm, professional or online service you want. There is no perfect answer on how to make this decision, but here are some main points you can take into consideration.
The minimum asset requirement and the fees are important aspects to take into consideration. These should fit your financial needs and overall net worth. Another factor that usually weighs in this decision is the wealth management's investment performance and strategy. Again, what works for some cannot work for others and you should look for a wealth advisor that best accommodates your demands.
For traditional wealth advisors, the relationship with the individual also plays a strong role in the decision, since hiring a wealth manager will involve trust. It is also always beneficial to verify the professional's credentials (if the person is a Certified Financial Planner) and track record with previous clients.
Ultimately, the decision will be made based on what you are looking for and which firm or company offers you the best match. Be that a wealth manager professional or a robo-advisor, this will be an important decision for your financial future. To help you, here are the best wealth management companies in , .

Automatic spending cuts that took effect Friday are expected to touch a vast range of government services. Some examples:
One of the Navy's premier warships, the aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman, sits pier-side in Norfolk, Va., its deployment to the Persian Gulf delayed. The carrier and its 5,000-person crew were to leave Feb. 8, along with the guided-missile cruiser USS Gettysburg. The Navy also began plans to gradually shut down four of its air wings - which include 50 to 60 aircraft each and are assigned to the carriers - and delay and cancel the deployments of several other ships.
Furlough notices will begin going out later this month to about 800,000 defense department civilians, who will lose a day's pay each week for more than five months. The Army will let go more than 3,000 temporary and contract employees and beginning in April, it will cancel maintenance at depots which will force 5,000 more layoffs. The Air Force Thunderbirds and the Navy's Blue Angels will cancel air show appearances.
Veterans' funerals at Arlington National Cemetery could be cut to 24 a day from 31, meaning delays in burials for troops from past wars. Troops killed in action in Afghanistan will be the priority - they are usually laid to rest within two weeks, Army spokesman George Wright said. But overall funerals would be reduced by about 160 a month because of furloughs among civilian employees who work with families to schedule services as well as furloughs among crews that dig the graves and do other grounds work.
Pentagon investments in countering cyberthreats and nuclear proliferation will be at risk, says Michael Vickers, the undersecretary of defense for intelligence. And the head of the Defense Intelligence Agency, Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, says the agency could be hit hard because it depends heavily on military and civilian personnel to accomplish its mission.
Coast Guard rescue aircraft will fly fewer hours and cutters will patrol the seas for fewer hours, says Commandant Adm. Robert J. Papp. Emergencies will be a priority and interdictions of illegal immigrants, drugs and illegal fishing could decline.
Documents reviewed by The Associated Press show that more than 2,000 illegal immigrants have been freed from jails across the country since Feb. 15. An Immigration and Customs Enforcement spokesman, however, reiterated the number is in the hundreds. ICE officials say they had reviewed several hundred cases of immigrants and decided to put them on an "appropriate, more cost-effective form of supervised release" in a move started Tuesday.
There could be an estimated 2,100 fewer food safety inspections and increased risks to consumers because of the cuts and the fact that lack of a new 2013 budget means the Food and Drug Administration is held at last year's spending level. Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Margaret Hamburg says most of the effects wouldn't be felt for a while, and the agency won't have to furlough workers.
Hospitals, doctors and other Medicare providers will see a 2 percent cut in government reimbursements because once the cutback takes effect, Medicare will reimburse them at 98 cents on the dollar. But they aren't complaining because the pain could be a lot worse if President Barack Obama and congressional Republicans actually did reach a sweeping agreement to reduce federal deficits. Automatic cuts taking effect Friday would reduce Medicare spending by about $100 billion over a decade. But Obama had put on the table $400 billion in health care cuts, mainly from Medicare. And Republicans wanted more.
On the other hand, Obama's health overhaul law is expected to roll out on time and largely unscathed by the cuts. Part of the reason is that the law's major subsidies to help uninsured people buy private health coverage are structured as tax credits. So is the Affordable Care Act's assistance for small businesses. Tax credits have traditionally been exempted from automatic cuts.
The nation's busiest airports could be forced to close some of their runways, causing widespread flight delays and cancellations. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood predicts flights to cities like New York, Chicago and San Francisco could have delays of up to 90 minutes during peak hours because fewer controllers will be on duty.
Though the spending cuts are scheduled to go into effect on Friday, furloughs of controllers won't kick in until April because the Federal Aviation Administration is required by law to give its employees advance notice. In addition to furloughs, the FAA is planning to eliminate midnight shifts for air traffic controllers at 60 airport towers, close over 100 control towers at smaller airports and reduce preventative maintenance of equipment.
Visiting hours at all 398 national parks are likely to be cut and sensitive areas would be blocked off to the public. Thousands of seasonal workers looking for jobs would not be hired, according to Interior Secretary Ken Salazar. Salazar and National Park Service director Jon Jarvis said visitors would encounter locked restrooms, fewer rangers and trash cans emptied less frequently.
More than half of the nation's 2.1 million government workers may be required to take furloughs if agencies are forced to trim budgets. At the Pentagon alone that could mean 800,000 civilian workers would be off for 22 days each, spread across more than five months - and lose 20 percent of their pay over that period. Other federal agencies are likely to furlough several hundred thousand more workers.
Some 70,000 students enrolled in pre-kindergarten Head Start would be cut from the program and 14,000 teachers would lose their jobs. For students with special needs, the cuts would eliminate some 7,200 teachers and aides. The Education Department is also warning that the cuts will impact up to 29 million student loan borrowers and that some lenders may have to lay off staff or even close. Some of the 15 million college students who receive grants or work-study assignments at some 6,000 colleges would also see changes.
Congressional trips overseas likely will take a hit. House Speaker John Boehner told Republican members in a closed-door meeting that he's suspending the use of military aircraft for official trips by House members. Lawmakers typically travel on military planes for fact-finding trips to Afghanistan or Pakistan, or other congressional excursions to foreign locales.
Cleanup of radioactive waste at nuclear sites across the country would be delayed. The Energy Department says the cuts would postpone work at the department's highest-risk sites, including the Hanford Nuclear Reservation near Richland, Wash., where six tanks are leaking radioactive waste left over from decades of plutonium production for nuclear weapons. Other high-risk sites facing work delays are the Oak Ridge Reservation in Tennessee, Savannah River Site in South Carolina and the Idaho National Laboratory.
Any furloughs at the Internal Revenue Service will be delayed until summer, after the tax filing season ends, so the agency says it shouldn't delay tax refunds. But other IRS services will be affected. Millions of taxpayers may not be able get responses from IRS call centers and taxpayer assistance centers. The cuts would delay IRS responses to taxpayer letters and force the agency to complete fewer tax return reviews, reducing its ability to detect and prevent fraud. The IRS says this could result in billions of dollars in lost revenue to the government, complicating deficit reduction efforts.
More than 3.8 million people jobless for six months or longer could see their unemployment benefits reduced by as much as 9.4 percent. Thousands of veterans would not receive job counseling. Fewer Occupational Safety and Health Administration inspectors could mean 1,200 fewer inspections of dangerous work sites.

Miguel Bumped Up From The Nosebleed Seats To GRAMMY Performer
With only four days until the GRAMMYs, the show announced today that Miguel and Wiz Khalifa have been added to the show's performance line-up. And Miguel is starting to feel the pressure.
"I suppose anxiety might be the word," he told Radio.com. "I don't want anything to go wrong."
It's the singer's first performance on the telecast and he wants to impress. "I have something really special planned for that moment," Miguel said. "I can't wait to do it. I can't wait for the day in general."
In addition, the "Adorn" singer is nominated for five awards, including Song Of The Year.
As a kid he watched the GRAMMYs wishing one day he would get a chance to attend and in 2011, Miguel was nominated for co-writing R&B singer Jaheim's song "Finding My Way Back." But, it wasn't exactly what he had imagined.
"I'll never forget getting there and getting in my seat and the seat being way up in the nosebleed section," he said laughing.
With his performance this year, Miguel hopes he can introduce himself to a new audience who may have never heard his name, let alone his latest album Kaleidoscope Dream.
"I think more than anything it will give me kind of a chance to show people how involved I am in the industry and the creative process," he said.
As for what he'll be wearing on the red carpet, Miguel hinted that it won't be your standard black tuxedo.
"I think I know what I'm going to throw on," he said. "I'm definitely not afraid to do something bold."
Catch this performance and many more on the GRAMMYs, airing Sunday, February 10 on CBS.

First guidelines issued to prevent stroke in women
Just as heart attack symptoms may differ between men and women, so do stroke risks.
Now, the American Heart Association has issued its first guidelines for preventing strokes in women. They focus on birth control, pregnancy, depression and other risk factors that women face uniquely or more frequently than men do.
The advice applies to patients like Denise Miller, who suffered a stroke last year that fooled doctors at two northeast Ohio hospitals before it was finally diagnosed at the Cleveland Clinic. She was 36 and had no traditional risk factors.
"There was nothing to indicate I was going to have a stroke," other than frequent migraines with aura — dizziness or altered senses such as tingling, ringing ears or sensitivity to light, Miller said.
These headaches are more common in women and the new guidelines issued Thursday flag them as a concern. Miller recovered but has some lingering numbness and vision problems.
Each year, nearly 800,000 Americans have a new or recurrent stroke, which occurs when a blood vessel to the brain is blocked by a clot or bursts. Stroke is the third-leading cause of death for women and the fifth-leading cause for men. The key to surviving one and limiting disability is getting help fast, and recognizing symptoms such as trouble speaking, weakness or numbness in one arm, or drooping on one side of the face.
Stroke risk rises with age, and women tend to live longer than men. Women are more likely to be living alone when they have a stroke, to have poorer recovery, and to need institutional care after one.
Certain stroke risks are more common in women — migraine with aura, obesity, an irregular heartbeat called atrial fibrillation, and metabolic syndrome — a combo of problems including blood pressure, cholesterol and blood sugar.
General guidelines for stroke prevention currently focus on controlling blood pressure and diabetes, quitting smoking, more exercise and healthy diets.
The new ones add gender-specific advice, said Dr. Cheryl Bushnell, stroke chief at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center in Winston-Salem, N.C. She led the panel that wrote the guidelines, published in Stroke, a Heart Association journal.
Some highlights:
BIRTH CONTROL PILLS: Women should be checked for high blood pressure before starting on oral contraceptives because the combination raises stroke risks. The risk is small but rises steeply in women ages 45 to 49. More than 10 million American women use birth control pills.
PREGNANCY: Strokes are uncommon during pregnancy but the risk is still higher, especially during the last three months and soon after delivery. The big worry is preeclampsia, dangerously high blood pressure that can cause a seizure and other problems.
"It doubles the risk of stroke later in life and it quadruples the risk of high blood pressure" after pregnancy, Bushnell said.
Women with a history of high blood pressure before pregnancy should be considered for low-dose aspirin (around 81 milligrams) after the first three months of pregnancy, and calcium supplements anytime, to lower the risk of preeclampsia, the guidelines say.
Pregnant women with very high blood pressure (160 over 110 and above) should be treated with medications, and treatment may be considered for those with moderately high blood pressure (150 to 159 over 100 to 109). Certain blood pressure medicines are not safe during pregnancy, the guidelines note.
ASPIRIN: It's usually recommended for anyone who has already had a stroke unless the stroke was caused by bleeding rather than a clot, or if bleeding risk is a concern, Bushnell said. Aspirin also is often recommended for people with diabetes to lower the risk of stroke and other problems.
A low-dose aspirin every other day "can be useful" to lower stroke risk in women 65 and older unless its benefit is outweighed by the potential for bleeding or other risks, the guidelines say.
MIGRAINES: Women are four times more likely to have migraines than men, and they often coincide with hormone swings. Migraines alone don't raise the risk of stroke, but ones with aura do. Using oral contraceptives and smoking raise this risk even more, so the guidelines urge stopping smoking.
IRREGULAR HEARTBEAT: Women over age 75 should be checked for atrial fibrillation. Doctors do this by taking a pulse or listening to the heartbeat.
MENOPAUSE: Hormone therapy should not be used to try to prevent strokes.
The new guidelines put women's issues "on the table" so more doctors talk about them, said Dr. Shazam Hussain, stroke chief at the Cleveland Clinic. "Gender does make a difference. The medical community has neglected it for some time."

Bring your artwork to life with the stylish lines and added depth of an acrylic print. Your image gets printed in crisp, sharp detail directly onto the back of a 1/4" thick sheet of clear acrylic. The high gloss of the acrylic sheet complements the rich colors of any image to produce stunning results. Acrylic wall art offers a modern and minimalist feel to your home or office decor while providing a unique translucent quality to the image. Our acrylic prints are produced using vibrant archival inks guaranteed to last 75 years without fading or loss of color and arrive ready-to-hang with your choice of mounting hardware included.
Hanging Wire Mount
With this option, your acrylic wall art print is attached to a 1/4" thick black board with a wooden frame and hanging wire attached to the back. There are no metal mounting posts at the corners. Simply put a nail in your wall, hang your print from the hanging wire, and you're done. Due to the thickness of the black board and mounting frame, your print is separated from the wall by 1.50"
Aluminum Mounting Posts
Attach the acrylic print to your wall with four aluminum mounting posts. The cylindrical cap of each mounting post can be removed, allowing you to thread a small screw through the post and into the wall. When you're finished, simply reattached each cap and you're done. The mounting posts act as stand-offs and keep your print separated from the wall by 1". All of the required mounting hardware (i.e. posts, screws, and wall anchors) is included with your print.

When the San Francisco 49ers' new stadium opens for the 2014 NFL season, it is quite likely to have the best publicly accessible Wi-Fi network a sports facility in this country has ever known.
The 49ers are defending NFC champions, so 68,500 fans will inevitably walk into the stadium for each game. And every single one of them will be able to connect to the wireless network, simultaneously, without any limits on uploads or downloads. Smartphones and tablets will run into the limits of their own hardware long before they hit the limits of the 49ers' wireless network.
Until now, stadium executives have said it's pretty much impossible to build a network that lets every single fan connect at once. They've blamed this on limits in the amount of spectrum available to Wi-Fi, despite their big budgets and the extremely sophisticated networking equipment that largesse allows them to purchase. Even if you build the network perfectly, it would choke if every fan tried to get on at once—at least according to conventional wisdom.
But the people building the 49ers' wireless network do not have conventional sports technology backgrounds. Senior IT Director Dan Williams and team CTO Kunal Malik hail from Facebook, where they spent five years building one of the world's largest and most efficient networks for the website. The same sensibilities that power large Internet businesses and content providers permeate Williams' and Malik's plan for Santa Clara Stadium, the 49ers' nearly half-finished new home.
"We see the stadium as a large data center," Williams told me when I visited the team's new digs in Santa Clara.
I had previously interviewed Williams and Malik over the phone, and that's when they first told me they planned to make Wi-Fi so ubiquitous throughout the stadium that everyone could get on at once. I had never heard of such an ambitious plan before—how could this be possible?
Today's networks are impressive—but not unlimited
An expansive Wi-Fi network at this year's Super Bowl in the New Orleans Superdome was installed to allow as many as 30,000 fans to get online at once. This offloaded traffic from congested cellular networks and gave fans the ability to view streaming video or do other bandwidth-intensive tasks meant to enhance the in-game experience. (Don't scoff—as we've noted before, three-plus-hour NFL games contain only 11 minutes of actual game action, or a bit more if you include the time quarterbacks spend shouting directions at teammates at the line of scrimmage. There is plenty of time to fill up.)
Superdome officials felt a network allowing 30,000 simultaneous connections would be just fine, given that the previous year's Super Bowl saw only 8,260 at its peak. They were generally right, as the network performed well, even for part of the game's power outage.
The New England Patriots installed a full-stadium Wi-Fi network this past season as well. It was never used by more than 10,000 or so people simultaneously, or by more than 16,000 people over the course of a full game. "Can 70,000 people get on the network at once? The answer to that is no," said John Brams, director of hospitality and venues at the Patriots' network vendor, Enterasys. "If everyone tried to do it all at once, that's probably not going to happen."
But as more fans bring smart devices into stadiums, activities like viewing instant replays or live camera angles available only to ticket holders will become increasingly common. It'll put more people on the network at once and require bigger wireless pipes. So if Williams and Malik have their way, every single 49ers ticket holder will enjoy a wireless connection faster than any wide receiver sprinting toward the end zone.
"Is it really possible to give Wi-Fi to 68,500 fans at once?" I asked. I expected some hemming and hawing about how the 49ers will do their best and that not everyone will ever try to use the network at once anyway.
"Yes. We can support all 68,500," Williams said emphatically.
"How not?" he answered.
Won't you have to limit the capacity each fan can get?
Again, absolutely not. "Within the stadium itself, there will probably be a terabit of capacity. The 68,500 will not be able to penetrate that. Our intentions in terms of Wi-Fi are to be able to provide a similar experience that you would receive with LTE services, which today is anywhere from 20 to 40 megabits per second, per user.
"The goal is to provide you with enough bandwidth that you would saturate your device before you saturate the network," Williams said. "That's what we expect to do."
Fans won't be limited by what section they're in, either. If the 49ers offer an app that allows fans to order food from their seats, or if they offer a live video streaming app, they'll be available to all fans.
"The mobile experience should not be limited to, 'Hey, because you sit in a club seat you can see a replay, but because you don't sit in a club seat you can't see a replay,'" Malik said. "That's not our philosophy. Our philosophy is to provide enhancement of the game experience to every fan." (The one exception would be mobile features designed specifically for physical features of luxury boxes or club seats that aren't available elsewhere in the stadium.)
It's the design that counts
Current stadium Wi-Fi designs, even with hundreds of wireless access points distributed throughout a stadium, often can support only a quarter to a half of fans at once. They also often limit bandwidth for each user to prevent network slowdowns.
The Patriots offer fans a live video and instant replay app, with enough bandwidth to access video streams, upload photos to social networks, and use the Internet in general. Enterasys confirmed to Ars that the Patriots do enforce a bandwidth cap to prevent individual users from overloading the network, but Enterasys would not say exactly how big the cap is. The network has generally been a success, but some users of the Patriots app have taken to the Android app store to complain about the stadium Wi-Fi's performance.
According to Williams, most current stadium networks are limited by a fundamental problem: sub-optimal location of wireless access points.
"A typical layout is overhead, one [access point] in front of the section, one behind the section, and they point towards each other," he said. "This overhead design is widely used and provides enough coverage for those using the design."
Williams would not reveal the exact layout of the 49ers' design, perhaps to prevent the competition from catching on. How many access points will there be? "Zero to 1,500," he said in a good-natured attempt to be both informative and vague.
That potentially doubles or quadruples the typical amount of stadium access points—the Super Bowl had 700 and the Patriots have 375. But this number isn't the most important thing. "The number of access points will not give you any hint on whether the Wi-Fi is going to be great or not," Malik said. "Other factors control that."

Building back better requires transforming the development model of Latin America and the Caribbean
This year's regular resources report analyses how UN Women mobilized its core contributions in 2019 to fulfil its normative, coordination, and operational activities mandate, in order to improve the lives of women and girls worldwide. Through the presentation of tangible results, this report presents case studies at the global, regional, and country levels to showcase the impact that regular resources have in the countries where UN Women is present.
This report tells UN Women's story over the period 2019–2020. It shares how we and our many partners are striding forward to realize a better world for women and girls—one of equality and empowerment. Looking forward, we will draw on our full resources and experiences in protecting and advancing the rights of all women and girls. That is what we do and who we are, as a leader, mobilizer, convenor, provider of programmes, and partner for change.
The Latin America and the Caribbean region has the highest levels of income inequality in the world, with wide gaps in living standards across countries, regions, sectors, and socioeconomic spheres. When coupled with the pervasive gender inequality that persists, the response to Covid-19 becomes immeasurably more complicated, finds a new report by CARE International and UN Women.
The extent of the socio-economic fallout from the COVID-19 pandemic has begun to shape the "new normal" for CARICOM Member States. A 1.5% contraction of Gross Domestic Product has already been estimated by the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC, 2020). While governments balance this "new normal," there is also an 'above-average' forecast for the 2020 Atlantic Hurricane Season, which takes place from June 1 to November 30.

Issues such as care work, economic autonomy, physical or sexual violence, women's participation in decision-making, disaggregation of data by sex, gender analysis, and irregular migration are just some of the areas of concern that must be part of an effective response to the health crisis that the world is going through right now. ...
Regional report on the review of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action in Latin American and Caribbean countries, 25 years on
This report was prepared on the basis of the 27 national reports submitted by the countries of Latin America and the Caribbean on the implementation of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action (1995), in the context of the twenty-fifth anniversary of the Fourth World Conference on Women and the adoption of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action 1995 (Beijing+25).
The objective of the Action Model is to ensure that UN Women, as an expert agency on gender equality and women's empowerment, offers appropriate programmatic options for the purpose of generating transformative changes for women and girls in the region, within the framework of the 2030 Agenda and the Sustainable Development Goals.
Latin America and the Caribbean is one of the re- gions of the world with the highest exposure to disasters, with the Caribbean facing increased risks given its geography. This combines with the region's high vulnerability to climate change.. The high rates of violence in the region are equally alarming, with women and girls being the most frequent victims. Humanitarian crises, regardless of the cause, affect women, men, girls and boys differently. Women and girls are the most vulnerable to suffering the nega- tive effects of humanitarian crises. For this reason, one essential requirement for effective humanitar- ian response is that the specific and differentiated needs of the population be considered, including women's and girls'. Women and girls are also agents of change and can play a critical role in community resilience.
The UN Women Americas and the Caribbean - Results Achieved in 2014 report, aims to highlight some of the key results from 2014 and provide a snapshot of UN Women´s contributions towards achieving full equality and human rights for all women and girls in Latin America and the Caribbean.

JK Rowling to pen new magic movie for Warner Bros.
LONDON - J.K. Rowling's world of wizardry is coming back to the big screen - but without Harry Potter.
Film studio Warner Bros. announced Thursday that Rowling will write the screenplay for a movie based on "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them," her textbook to the magical universe she created in the boy wizard's stories.
The story will focus on the book's fictitious author, Newt Scamander, and is anticipated to be the first in a series.
Rowling said in a statement the movie "is neither a prequel nor a sequel to the Harry Potter series, but an extension of the wizarding world."
She said the story would begin in New York 70 years before the start of Harry Potter's tale.
Screenwriting is the latest in a string of new ventures for Rowling since she finished writing the Harry Potter series, which has sold more than 450 million copies around the world.
She has published a novel for adults, "The Casual Vacancy," and written detective thriller "The Cuckoo's Calling" under the pseudonym Robert Galbraith.
Rowling said the idea for a "Fantastic Beasts" film had come from Warner Bros., and she soon realized she could not entrust another writer with her creation.
"Having lived for so long in my fictional universe, I feel very protective of it," she said. "I already knew a lot about Newt."
"As I considered Warner's proposal, an idea took shape that I couldn't dislodge. That is how I ended up pitching my own idea for a film to Warner Bros."
As well as movies, Warner Bros. said "Fantastic Beasts" would be "developed across the studio's video game, consumer products and digital initiatives businesses."
Warner Bros., a unit of Time Warner Inc., was behind eight Harry Potter movies, released between 2001 and 2011. Rowling did not write the screenplays for those films, which Warner Bros. says took in $7.7 billion at the global box office.
Since the film series wrapped up, the company has been involved in related ventures including a Harry Potter studio tour near London, Universal's Wizarding World of Harry Potter theme park in Orlando, Florida, and the Pottermore website.
Warner Bros. also said Thursday it would be the worldwide distributor for a television adaptation of "The Casual Vacancy." The BBC is due to film the miniseries next year.
